E.M.F. Arrives Antwerp
The Pastor and Spiritual Head of the Celestial Church of Christ Worldwide, His Eminence, Reverend Emmanuel Mobiyina Oshoffa, arrived Antwerp, Belgium, at about 2.30 pm today, Friday, 22nd September, 2023, to a warm and rousing welcome.
He was accompanied by his amiable wife, Mother Celestial Celine Oshoffa, Head of France Diocese, VSE Andrew Abiodun Fadenipo, Assistant Venerable Superior Evangelist Gouan Barthelemy and Superior Evangelist Peter Onwodi.
In a telephone conversation with C.C.C. Media, Reverend E.M.F. Oshoffa expressed deep shock at the demise of Venerable Superior Evangelist Victor Babatope Williams, a Member of the Board of Trustees of the Celestial Church of Christ Worldwide and an icon in the Celestial fold.
“The passage of Venerable Superior Evangelist V.B. Williams came as a very rude shock. He was a man very close to my heart. The Celestial Church of Christ has lost a priceless gem. He left at a time when we need him most. Our consolation is that he lived a life worthy of emulation in the service and worship of the Lord. May his lovely soul rest in perfect peace,” His Eminence prayed.
A high powered delegation comprising members of the Board of Trustees and the Pastor in Council is set to visit the family of the departed to deliver a condolence message from His Eminence and to join the family in planning a befitting burial for the departed icon.
